What do you drive?

GMScud · 08-20-2010, 12:13 AM

Well, I know there's another thread about this somewhere on this site, but for the life of me I couldn't find it.

Anyway, I've got a brand new Nissan Altima (4 DR 2.5 SL with all the bells and whistles) in my possession right now. It's a smooth ride. The owner and GM of Chevy Chase Cars are friends of mine, so they have a really, really sweet deal for me. I've been testing it out the past few days. I love it. Anyone else own one or have any other experiences with Nissans?

I bought a 2004 Buick Rendevous (SP?) for my Birthday and I have a 98 Chevy Blazer so no Nissan for me.

I've had my 2010 Ford Fusion since April last year and it was my first real new car. I love most things about it but I most especially love my SYNC system especially when I found out I could stream Pandora through my phone & stereo system and shut off my Sirius subscription haha.

I 2 almost went with an Altima but I got a deal in my Fusion thanks to a friend and I couldn't pass it up. The Altima is a very sweet ride though from my limited experience.

Nice..I've had a 2003 Nissan Altima SL for 7 years and it hasn't let me down. I have done all the maintenance stuff and it works like a charm. The only issue is my sun roof doesn't open anymore. The dealer said it would cost $400 to replace the motor on it but I don't care enough to fix it.

Does it still come with a nice Bose sound system?

I've got an 06 Acura TSX, 05 Toyota 4Runner, 06 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, 01 Honda S2000, and a cherry 87 Chevy V10 pickup. The truck was my first vehicle and will always be in my garage.

I've never owned a Nissan, but you bought yourself a good car. Daseal has a Maxima, and it's a nice car. One thing I thought was pretty cool about it is that when you open the door, the steering wheel moves up and out of the way so that your knees don't hit it when you get out.

2005 Honda Civic.

I traded in my souped up Evo VIII for a freakin Scion XB. I wanted something cheap with low maintenance that I could get all of my kids into. Suprisingly it is perfect for golfers also. I fit 3 growm men (me and 2 passengers) with luggage and clubs comfortably on my annual Myrtle Beach trip this year. They look small but are quite roomy.

I also have an xB, mine is a 2005. One of the reasons I bought it is because my brother, my best friend and I always used to hang out together and we're all 6'1 or taller, they both had 2 doors, so we'd always end up taking 2 cars wherever we went. It was just nice to have the space to fit all 3 of us.

I'm thinking about getting rid of it in the next year or so, though, looking at Mini Coopers.

Same for me, got mine in March. Sync rocks

I have a 2006 Ford Ranger 4X4 with a 5 speed. 99,000 miles.

Then i have my 1981 Yamaha XS400, which is a real gem, only 11,000 miles.

Yeah I have the Expedition for the whole family. I just have the XB for work and picking up kids after school. It serves its purpose well. I do miss my Evo though.

I like the mini Coopers as well. Ironically the size that we buy here in the U.S. are known as "Maxis" in Europe. The actual mini coopers are much smaller.
